About Event

​A monthly gathering for your inner life.

​You may be living with the loss of someone you love, a relationship that has ended or changed, a former version of yourself, or the life you thought you would have.

​You may be navigating uncertainty, learning to accept what you cannot control, rebuilding trust in yourself, or gathering the courage to take a meaningful next step.

​You may simply be longing for somewhere you can stop holding everything together and just be.

​Soul Care Sundays offer you a place to slow down, listen inward, and be with what is here.

​This season we hold space for grief and cultivating courage—two experiences that live beside one another and between us, reminding us that we’re not alone.

​Through live classical music, gentle movement, breath, humming, poetry, rest, and reflection, you’ll be supported in meeting yourself with presence and tenderness. Everything is an invitation. You can participate in whatever way feels right for you.

​Come as you are. Let the music meet you there.

​Join us one Sunday each month at Pluto.

​An intimate gathering with limited capacity.


​THIS SUNDAY 🎶

​Each Soul Care Sunday brings you different collaborating local musicians. The music is thoughtfully chosen to open reflection, deepen feeling, and shape the emotional journey.

This Sunday's live music meditation is brought to you by:

​🪈✨ Anh Phung, flute player of your dreams

​Whether she's improvising, experimenting with effects pedals, or exploring unconventional approaches to the instrument, Anh is guided more by curiosity than convention. The result is a vibe that moves between worlds, across jazz, bluegrass, hip-hop, and beyond. She's unreal and SO real at the same time. @anh.t.phung


​WHO THIS IS FOR

​This may be for you if you are:

  • ​Moving through loss, change, uncertainty, or transition

  • ​Carrying something you haven’t had space to feel or integrate

  • ​Learning to accept what you cannot control

  • ​Embodying the courage to let go, speak up, decide, change, or begin again

  • ​Longing for a meaningful way to care for your inner life and practice being fully present

  • ​Craving genuine connection without having to explain yourself

  • ​Seeking an art experience without the stiff and stuffy traditions

  • ​Needing a peaceful and harmonious environment to rest and practice simply being
